Geothermal energy

Geothermal Energy is one of the most reliable sustainable and renewable energy source available today. The knowledge on utilization of geothermal energy for both electrical production as well as district heating, and other direct usage has been building up rapidly in Iceland and abroad for the last decades. 


EFLA is one of the world's few engineering consulting firms with decades of experience in harnessing this rapidly emerging but technologically demanding energy source.
